“I did nothing wrong. I did not touch my phone. I want to see Matt Rife because he’s a friend of mine.”

She captioned the video saying, “This. Is. Not. A. Bit. Real life I was arrested tonight @mattrife show at Radio City Music Hall #wtf.” In another video posted on X, she said 

“So I was dragged out of @mattrife show tonight in handcuffs, stating I was using my phone. I had not used my phone. I was just enjoying the show. 45 minutes in handcuffs, sent to an ambulance and released. Meanwhile I missed the show I was so looking forward to.”

Not much is known about what exactly happened behind the scenes. According to Ann, it had something to do with her phone during the show.  In a further update, she shared on X that the NYPD gave her the option to be by ambulance and get admitted to the hospital or go to jail. She felt traumatized and harassed.

“Tonight I was arrested and [harassed] by the NYPD – they offered me a choice to be 51/50 by ambulance & admitted to the hospital – or arrested [and] put in jail over someone thinking I used my phone during the @mattrife show.”

Although many big-name comedians secure phones in Yondr pouches to make sure no unsolicited video recording occurs during their show for obvious reasons, Matt Rife does not have such a policy. However, Rife does discourage people from recording his show to prevent jokes from leaking on social media.
